Just think, some of us grew up in pre - a7750 Yup, it was chronosucky

I only have straps. No watches yet so here is mine ------ Thanks for looking

How about a gmt watch with a rehaut 12 hr indication but, while the dial numbers appear as normal, but the gmt numbers are crazy hr style. No, I'm not smoking crack, my mind is really that disengaged to where I could have that thought. Hey, 49'rs are owning the saints. Anything is possible. Someone buy my watches --- I need the dues.

Right cause it only took 5 yrs after the dawn of super reps to get the damn rolex date window in the right place

I only came here to see what you waisted your time on

More good vids in the sig

Doood did you tie it to your car and drive down the freeway? Do we have to go back to is your crystal hot or cold in the morning tests?

I like it. But, I wouldn't wear it on your shoes for to long you might scratch it.

Thanks to you bro. Bronzy put this together for me. It looks mean but feels soft. I have always wanted one like this. When i saw what bronzy was selling for, I couldn't resist. It's even better than the photos . I can't wait to get more time to play with the light box.

All that means is I wouldn't need alcohol

Finally

This is the #1 thing I try to get newbs to buy into. It really should be our motto. I will go out of my way to help an enthusiast. But if it's someone that wants to look cool with a "the best" submariner. Well, I will answer a question or 2 but, that's not why I'm here and that's not something useful to foster the forum. You gotta have that crazy love. .. I am totally amazed at mechanical movements - just amazed. More amazed than my huge HDTV I think finding yourself in this watch world takes trial and error, it takes adjusting to what's available vs your grail. I need to update my thoughts on the forum thread to talk about this concept. And to point out 1. Dealers are not and never will be walmart or amazon.com. 2 we are not here to support dealers. Im not here to convince you that reps are awesome and great quality. I'll help you on the journey, but not to puff up what reps are. Ii had to tell a newb this week that some people are not cut out for reps. I encouraged him along to deal with some issues. Showed him how the process works, but he kept coming back. I think he will love reps, but, he needed to sink or swim and not use me as s flotation device There will be spring bar issues and clasp issues and a piece of dirt on the dial. [censored] happens find a way to fix it. It's part of the adventure.

[censored] no one called me was up dude

This is a Fun thread. Wish there were more Fun happening. It seems to me that there isn't as much fun

I dont disagree. If it was just the movt I would say play the odds. But, it was the hands tearing themselves up. + I have a watch smith you can do it. But it probably be a 100$ by the time he's done mailing installing. Because this is the first purchase, stay safe. Realistically the running seconds isn't that major of a difference at least IMHO.

Your killin me. Are you Jetmid? I think your jetmid

It does rotate once a minute. So If you watch you can keep track.

I gotta say your avatar is disturbing - I feel like that person is going to jump through my screen and choke me . Maybe I need to lay off the acid.

Reaping the movement will be easy. Getting someone to follow you around playing that music all the time could be pricey

I think it's safe to say they have a strategic partnership. But, they are 2 different persons which has been verified with visual identification

Having had the opportunity to have him stuff his UN literally under my nose I know. all his photos were divers That reminds me, UN has a boutique shop now - near me- let me know if you want to go shopping.

Nor will it Re pass Damn iPad. It's getting out of control with auto correct Also isn't the thing w pams that you change the strap? I mean if you know enough to spot a genstrap they are going to own aftermarket ones. Best advice don't worry about others, buy Stuff you will like. If you don't know. Wait. Or buy discounted. Only way to learn is to jump in and swim

Mike, close, but - my current collection are pretty old. Plus I have several w family . And in the old days all we had were Asian in handwinds. And never. Got 1 complaint about failed movmt. I did some cursory searching on recent failures. Before posting my comment. I didn't see anything that I would consider that. If reps were failing at a high rate there would be a lot of talk. 6:00 daytonas iwc portugese, 6497 no running seconds. I stand by my playing the odds philosophy. I know others disagree, that's why I mentioned it. Platinum plating is a different issue. I'm pretty sure it's more likely for me to be struck by lightning vs running into someone who would be able to discern that as a "tell" and that's not considering they wouldn't have the opportunity to see it cause I'd be wearing it. but that is up to the buyer and what they value. I put a premium on stuff I can see. I could give a crap about what other people might see. Pulling off a rep as a gen is more about how the wearer acts not about cosmetic flaws. But, i have also learned that understanding why people make decisions about money is never easily understood without a very intense an generally unattainable amount of info.
